바이오매스 유래 항암물질 paclitaxel 정제를 위하여, 물리적 특성이 다른 메조기공 알루미나 흡착제를 제조하여 흡착제 처리 효과를 조사하였다. 알루미나의 물리적 특성 중 표면적과 기공부피 보다는 기공크기(기공지름)이 흡착제 처리효과에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 특히 적절한 기공크기(기공지름: 10.8 nm)에서 식물유래 타르 및 왁스 성분을 포함한 불순물을 제거하는데 가장 효과적이었다. 일정한 기공크기에서 흡착제의 표면적은 paclitaxel 순도뿐만 아니라 수율에 많은 영향을 미치며 흡착제의 표면적이 증가할수록 paclitaxel과 불순물(바이오매스 유래 타르 및 왁스 성분 포함)의 흡착 정도는 증가하였다. 이러한 불순물 제거 효과는 흡착제 처리 후 흡착제를 메탄올로 세척하여 HPLC로 분석한 결과와 흡착제에 붙은 유기물의 TGA 정량 분석 결과로도 확인할 수 있었다.

Carbon nanofiber (CNF) is used as an electrode material for electrical double layer capacitors (EDLCs), and is being consistently researched to improve its electrochemical performance. However, CNF still faces important challenges due to the low mesopore volume, leading to a poor high-rate performance. In the present study, we prepared the unique architecture of the activated mesoporous CNF with a high specific surface area and high mesopore volume, which were successfully synthesized using PMMA as a pore-forming agent and the KOH activation. The activated mesoporous CNF was found to exhibit the high specific surface area of $703m^2g^{-1}$, total pore volume of $0.51cm^3g^{-1}$, average pore diameter of 2.9 nm, and high mesopore volume of 35.2 %. The activated mesoporous CNF also indicated the high specific capacitance of $143F\;g^{-1}$, high-rate performance, high energy density of $17.9-13.0W\;h\;kg^{-1}$, and excellent cycling stability. Therefore, this unique architecture with a high specific surface area and high mesopore volume provides profitable synergistic effects in terms of the increased electrical double-layer area and favorable ion diffusion at a high current density. Consequently, the activated mesoporous CNF is a promising candidate as an electrode material for high-performance EDLCs.

The Li-air battery is a promising candidate for the most energy-dense electrochemical power source because it has 5 to 10 times greater energy storage capacity than that of Li-ion batteries. However, the Li-air cell performance falls short of the theoretical estimate, primarily because the discharge terminates well before the pore volume of the air electrode is completely filled with lithium oxides. Therefore, the structure of carbon used in the air electrode is a critical factor that affects the performance of Li-air batteries. In a previous study, we reported a new class of carbon nanomaterial, named carbon nanoballs (CNBs), consisting of highly mesoporous spheres. Structural characterization revealed that the synthesized CNBs have excellent a meso-macro hierarchical pore structure, with an average diameter greater than 10 nm and a total pore volume more than $1.00cm^3g^{-1}$. In this study, CNBs are applied in an actual Li-air battery to evaluate the electrochemical performance. The formation mechanism and electrochemical performance of the CNBs are discussed in detail.

본 연구에서는 하수슬러지의 열분해로 촤를 제조하였고, 열분해 반응 조건이 슬러지 촤의 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 열분해 온도가 $300^{\circ}C$에서 $800^{\circ}C$로 증가함에 따라 슬러지 char의 비표면적은 증가하였으나, $700^{\circ}C$에서는 일시적으로 감소하였다. 열분해 속도는 char의 비표면적과 기공부피에 미치는 영향이 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 열분해 반응시간이 증가함에 따라 비표면적과 기공부피는 증가하였으나, 평균 기공크기는 감소하는 결과를 나타내었다.

본 연구는 무연탄올 원료로 제조한 활성탄의 활성화 시간과 burn-off에 따른 세공구조의 변화를 고찰한 것으로 77K에서 질소 흡착실험에 의해 특성을 분석했다. 활성화 시간의 증가에 따라 burn-off는 거의 선형적으로 증가하며, burn-off를 증가시킴에 따라 제조된 활성탄의 총세공부피와 BET 비표면적은 증가했다. $800^{\circ}C$의 활성화는 $950^{\circ}C$의 활성화에 비해 미세세공(micropore)을 많이 생성시켰고, 동일한 burn-off에서는 저온에서 활성화시킨 활성탄에 미세세공이 발달하고 고온에서 활성화시킨 활성탄에 중간이상의 세공이 더 발달해 있었다. 수증기 활성화에 의해서는 직경 $100{\AA}$ 이하의 세공이 주로 발달되었으며 특히 $6{\sim}40{\AA}$ 범위의 세공은 burn-off의 정도에 따라 상당히 발달됨을 알 수 있었다.

Hydrogen adsorption on various porous materials have been studied with a volumetric method at low temperature in the pressure of 0-760 torr. Their hydrogen uptakes depend at least partly on microporosity rather than total porosity. However, it is also necessary to consider other parameters such as pore size and pore architecture to explain the adsorption capacity. The heat of adsorption and adsorption-desorption-readsorption experiments show that the hydrogen adsorption over the porous materials are composed of physisorption with negligible contribution of chemisorption. Among the porous materials studied in this work, SAPO-34 has the highest adsorption capacity of 160 mL/g at 77 K and 1 atm probably due to high micropore surface area, micropore volume and narrow pore diameter.

연약지반의 압밀거동은 온도변화에 의하여 영향을 받는다. 연약 점토지반 내에 온도가 증가하면 간극수압이 증가하고 간극수압의 소산은 부피와 간극비를 감소시킨다. 또한 높은 온도는 간극유체의 점성을 감소시키므로 압밀속도가 빨라진다. 본 연구에서는 온도가 압밀침하량, 압밀시간, 간극수압과 같은 압밀거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 이를 위하여 수리역학적(HM) 및 열수리역학적(THM) 거동에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 열주입과 샌드드레인을 동시에 고려하였으며, 온도 변화 및 샌드드레인 직경 변화를 고려하여 해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과, 시료내부의 온도는 열원의 온도와 샌드드레인의 직경 증가에 따라 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 열주입은 과잉간극수압을 증가시키고 그에 따라 과압밀 영역에서는 추가적인 침하량을 유발하고 정규압밀 영역에서는 압밀시간을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.

분무열분해 공정에 의해 물리적 특성이 다른 네 종류의 메조 다공성 실리카를 제조하여 식물세포배양 유래 항암물질 paclitaxel 정제에 사용하였다. 실리카 흡착제의 물리적 특성에서 표면적과 기공부피 보다는 기공크기 (기공지름)이 흡착제 처리 효과에 많은 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 특히 적절한 기공지름 (~9.07 nm)에서 가장 높은 순도 (~46.1%)와 수율 (~82.3%)의 paclitaxel을 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 불순물 (타르 및 왁스 성분 포함) 제거 효과는 흡착제 처리 후 흡착제를 메탄올로 세척한 시료의 HPLC 분석 결과와 흡착제에 붙은 유기물의 TGA 정량 분석 결과로도 확인할 수 있었다.

There are two primary causes of the ground movement due to tunnelling in urban areas; firstly the lost ground and secondly the groundwater depression during construction. The groundwater depression was usually not considered as a cause of settlement in previous research works. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the combined effect of these two phenomena on the transverse settlement trough. Centrifuge model tests and numerical analysis were primarily selected as the methodology. The characteristics of settlement trough were analyzed by performing centrifuge model tests where acceleration reached up to 80g condition. Two different types of tunnel models of 180 mm diameter were prepared in order to match the prototype of a large tunnel of 14.4 m diameter. A volume loss model was made to simulate the excavation procedure at different volume loss and a drainage tunnel model was made to simulate the reduction in pore pressure distribution. Numerical analysis was performed using FLAC 2D program in order to analyze the effects of various groundwater depression values on the settlement trough. Unconfined fluid flow condition was selected to develop the phreatic surface and groundwater level on the surface. The settlement troughs obtained in the results were investigated according to the combined effect of excavation and groundwater depression. Subsequently, a new curve is suggested to consider elastic settlement in the modified Gaussian curve. The results show that the effects of groundwater depression are considerable as the settlement trough gets deeper and wider compared to the trough obtained only due to excavation. The relationships of maximum settlement and infection point with the reduced pore pressure at tunnel centerline are also suggested.

Titania gel formations were prepared by sol-gel method using titanium(IV) chloride $(TiCl_4)$, and its characteristics were analyzed by varying the $epoxide/TiCl_4$ ratio and the amount of water In the end, titania $(TiO_2)$ aerogel were prepared using supercritical drying process. VOCs such as benzene, toluene, and m-xylene (BTX) were oxidized using prepared titania aerogel and commercially available $TiO_2$, and its performance was compared. The surface area, pore volume, and average pore diameter of 1,2-epoxybutane are significantly smaller than the propylene oxide. And the titania aerogels with 6 moi of epoxides have high surface areas, pore volumes, and average pore diameters. As a result of photo-oxidation, conversion of benzene was reached about $70\%$, and other reactants were reached about $60\%$ similarly. The conversion of BTX was increased as inlet concentration decreased. The reactivity of titania calcined at $600^{\circ}C$ was greater than $400^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$. Water is required as a reactants for the oxidation of VOCs, and the continuous consumption of hydroxyl radicals required replenishments to maintain catalyst activity. The activity ratio increased with increasing reaction time when enough amount of water was present in the reactor.
